Restaurant le Blumenthal

The Blumenthal is a Montreal brasserie tucked away in the heart of the Quartier des spectacles. Seven days a week, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., it’s the ideal spot for a business lunch, a relaxing happy hour, a pre/post-show meal or a late night dinner with friends. Enjoy the simple, delicious and generous cuisine of chef Rémi Brunelle, with a menu conceived with fresh ingredients and locally-sourced products in a modern and sophisticated décor—regional flavours in an urban environment.
